Chelsea Appoints Former Player and Club Legend, Frank Lampard As New Coach
London champions, Chelsea have appointed their former player and club midfield legend Frank Lampard as their new manager – a sensational return to Stamford Bridge for the former derby coach in a three-year deal
Lampard, the club’s all-time top goalscorer will succeed Maurizio Sarri, who has been appointed by Italian giants Juventus.
The 41-year-old had been the frontrunner for the job since it became clear Sarri would return to Italy after just one year to take over at Juventus, despite having just one year as a manager under his belt.
In a statement released by the club, Lampard said he was ‘immensely proud’ to return to Chelsea as head coach.
“Everyone knows my love for this club and the history we have shared, however, my sole focus is on the job in hand and preparing for the season ahead. I am here to work hard, bring further success to the club and I cannot wait to get started.”
